Christmas Eve Day:

While on Facetime with Grammy and Opa today we decided to open the kids Christmas gifts early...and man was that such a good idea, haha!  They have been playing with them happily for the last 6 hours.  Nice job, Grammy and Opa!  Cora and Layla got the jackpot of Barbies:  a house, furniture, barbies, clothes, shoes, accessories, a car...and on an on.  It's a massive hit.  Finn got a telescope, and the first thing he said when he looked through it was "I can see PLUTO!"  So, that must be an amazingly powerful telescope you got there, Grammy.  ;)  

























Spying on the neighbors




Taking in the Christmas tree star.


Finn made this "stand" all on his own.  :)


While we were opening gifts, Jonas opened his gift from Scooter.  It was an Amaon Echo Dot.  The kids were THRILLED.  I mean, Jonas and I like it too, but the kids went wild.  Now we have all sorts of new rules in the Schaefer house:
1.  No yelling at Alexa.
2.  No asking Alexa to play the poopy song.
3.  You can only ask Alexa to tell you a joke AFTER Mama is done listening to her music.
and on, and on.  Haha!  Good times, folks!  Fun for sure.  :)
